Dealing with "Change for Change's Sake" at Work
Manage episode 311071158 series 3082332
Many people who are frustrated with the rapid pace of change in their organizations bring up this concern that their companies are pushing changes just for change's sake.
They are convinced that the company is not being strategic about the direction and reason for many of the changes they are implementing. This episode dives into navigating this frustration and will give you some answers to approach this situation from a place where you can add the most value with the least amount of drama.
Often times, people understand that the world will always be changing, but they are not sold on the fact that change is all-the-time a great thing.
This topic is always a great conversation to get into and I believe this podcast can add a lot of clarity if you find yourself in this situation or mindset about changes going on with your team and organization.
In this episode we cover:
- The common myths about change at work that hold us back
- The 3 "camps" of where people tend to settle in their macro outlook on change in the world that comes their way
- The TRUE decision-maker of change and the reason to change what we are doing in the workplace
- What steps to take to actually speak up with expertise (and not your opinion) if you truly believe your organization is spinning their wheels with the changes they are implementing and trying to execute on
All in all this episode will help you ditch the drama greatly in your approach to navigating change in your life and at work.
So for anyone wondering:
- How can I get better at being comfortable with change?
- What do companies that successfully move through change have in common?
- Why is change so hard for some people at work?
- How to get better at change
- Why our company seems to change just for change's sake
Then this episode has some great actionable advice for you to run with!
